Here are the DEF 14A proxy statements from Eaton Vance Municipal Income Trust (EVN) in our archive over the last 12 months, newest first, and each one links through to the document itself with the summary and the scores our analysis gives it.
A DEF 14A covers the proxy statement, with executive pay and the shareholder votes, so if you follow EVN and want that one kind of document rather than the whole filing history, this is the page to keep. The company's other filings, of every form, are on the full EVN filings page.
Eaton Vance California Municipal Income Trust and Eaton Vance Municipal Income Trust are asking shareholders to vote at their joint Annual Meeting on March 11, 2026 in Boston. The main item is electing three Class III Trustees — Alan C. Bowser, Keith Quinton and Marcus L. Smith — to the Boards of both funds, each for terms expiring in 2026. The Boards, each composed of nine noninterested Trustees, unanimously recommend voting FOR all nominees.
The filing describes how the Boards oversee the funds, including risk oversight, valuation, and compliance, through six standing committees such as the Audit, Contract Review, Governance, Portfolio Management, Compliance, and Closed-End Fund Committees. It details trustee qualifications, diversity, and time-in-service limits, as well as governance practices like shareholder communications and nomination procedures. It also discloses trustee compensation, the ability to defer fees into other Eaton Vance funds, and confirms Deloitte & Touche LLP as independent auditor, with audit fees of $40,400 for the California Fund and $79,100 for the Municipal Fund for the year ended November 30, 2025.
